…Making Friends

Have you ever wanted to get past all the initial interractions with a person so you could just "be friends". Well that’s what I’ve been going through lately. Remember what it was like when we were kids? We could meet someone and five minutes later be best friends. As I get older making good friends like that gets harder and harder. 

Just a thought

Why do we feel like we need to impress people in order for them to like us. Then, we think that once they get to know and understand us they will like us more. Sometimes that happens and sometimes it doesn’t. I am reminded that there is one who likes us for who we are, no matter what.

A verse that a teacher reminded me of in class the other day was 2 Corinthians 5:9. It says, "Therefore we also have as our ambition…to be pleasing to Him." If I make it my goal everyday to please my Creator, then won’t He fulfill my need for fellowship? I think so!
